Navajo Vincent Joe Plater, Sr. Sterling Silver Stamped Heart Earrings

Navajo, Vincent Joe Platero, Sr. is a reknowned artist and silversmith from Tohajiilee, New Mexico, who designed and made the Vintage Collection for Rocki Gorman. Born in 1957, Vincent grew up as part of the Navajo Edgewater and Black Streak Clans and learned his craft from his mother, Helen Chavez. Featured in galleries around the country, Vincent has also won awards at the New Mexico State Fair and the Denver Indian Market. His silverwork has been noted since the 1970’s, and he designs and creates a full range of jewelry. He now brings his distinctive design style that is recognized and respected to collectors under his own name and hallmark VJP. His beautiful pieces of hand stamped sterling are popular with Native American jewelry collectors. The detailed stamping, repousse work, and signature patina that gives Vince's jewelry that Old Santa Fe Style Vintage look have made this jewelry sought after by many. These beautiful heart-shaped earrings are intricately stamped and have a lovely patina. They are fairly lightweight for all-day wear. Pair them with one of Vincent Platero's amazing pendants for an elegant show-stopping ensemble. (See other listings) Smoke-free, dog-friendly home. Earrings only. Accessories not included.
